RARE  PATTERNS  FOR  U.  S.  PAPER  MONEY. 

581  Dec.  1, 1863.  $100  Treasury  Coupon  note.  With  three  cou- 
pons attached,  each  for  $21/2-  On  the  left  two  male  figures 
representing  Commerce  and  Industry;  on  the  right,  scene 
on  board  a man-o-war  in  action,  with  large  smooth-bore 
cannon;  in  the  two  upper  corners  engine-turned  ovals  on 
which  are  C overlapped  by  the  figures  100.  This  was  to  be 
issued  December  first  1863,  with  interest  at  5 per  cent,  per 
annum,  payable  semi-annually,  and  was  to  run  for  2 years. 
The  last  semi-annual  interest  to  be  redeemed  with  the  note. 
This  is  a beautiful  specimen  of  the  engravers’  art,  with  en- 
graved sigs.  of  Chittenden  and  Spinner.  Has  small  cancel 
holes,  but  not  in  any  way  conspicuous.  Note  never  regu- 
larly issued,  and  excessively  rare.  Crisp. 

582  $100.00.  Three  year  United  States  Treasury  Note.  In  the 
center  a finely  engraved  standing  figure  of  Washington;  to 
the  left  a female  figure  emblematic  of  Liberty;  to  the  right 
a female  figure  representing  Justice,  holding  balances.  In 
right  and  left  upper  corner,  oval  engine-turned  labels  on 
which  are  the  Arabic  figures  “100.”  This  was  to  be  a 3 
year  interest  note  payable  at  rate  of  6 per  cent,  per  annum. 
This  note  never  appeared  in  circulation,  and  is  rated  as 
one  of  the  rarest  of  the  United  States  pattern  pieces  of  pa- 
per money.  So  far  as  can  be  learned,  there  is  only  another 
specimen.  Slightly  canceled,  but  in  no  way  to  disfigure  the 
design.  Crisp.

America  is  the  only  notional  banking  institution  which  was 
not  compelled  to  add  the  word  “National”  to  its  title,  be-

tude e)f  defiance,  standing  facing  to  left;  staneling  on  a rec- 
tangular tablet  on  wliiehi  is  the  motto  “In  Hod  We  4’i-ust”;

thre.‘e  arrows;  around  the  boi’der  “ Cniteel  States  of  Ameri-

rarest  of  the  dollars  which  have  been  made  at  the  United 
States  mint,  eitlier  ])atterns  or  I’egnlar,  and  lias  a record 
of  $150.00. 

050  1879.  $1.  (Holoid  ^letric).  Copper  jiroof.  On  the  obv. 
a female  liead  to  left,  with  tightly  coiled  hair;  on  a band 
across  the  top  of  the  head  the  word  “Liberty”;  around  the

sign, a good  deal  like  that  on  the  excessively  rare  stella  by

U.  S.  PATTERN  COINS 


Morgan  dated  1879,  with  tightly  coiled  hair,  and  the  resem- 
blance would  seem  to  indicate  that  the  work  was  by  the 
same  artist. 

650a  1878.  $1.  Copper  proof.  On  the  obverse  the  regular  ac- 
cepted design  of  Morgan  of  1878.  On  the  reverse  the  same 
as  the  adopted  design,  but  the  eagle  holds  a thick  olive 
branch  with  three  leaves  in  its  left  talon,  which  materially 
differs  from  the  adopted  design.  This  pattern  is  very  rare 
in  silver,  but  is  excessively  so  in  copper,  and  it  may  not 
have  been  offered  before. 

651  1879.  ^1^1.  Silver  ])roof.  Obverse  same  as  adopted  design 
by  Morgan,  but  on  the  reverse  a design  by  Barber!  Illus- 
trating a rare  instance  in  which  the  obverse  and  reverse 
designs  of  two  different  engravers  were  used  on  a United 
States  coin.  In  the  center  of  the  reverse  is  an  eagle  with 
outstretched  wings,  holding  in  its  left  talon  an  olive  branch 
with  9 leaves;  the  right  talon  grasps  three  long  arrows; 
just  above  the  head  of  eagle,  in  small  letters  across  the  field 
is  the  motto  “E.  Pluribus  Unum”;  around  the  border 
“United  States  of  America.”  This  coin  is  also  remarka- 
ble for  the  fact  that  it  has  the  motto  “E.  Pluribus  Unum” 
on  both  obverse  and  reverse. 

652  1882.  Dollar.  Silver  proof.  The  celebrated  “Morgan  de- 
sign.” Liberty  head  to  right,  with  a band  tightly  stretch- 
ed around  the  hair  at  the  back,  giving  the  effect  of  a skull- 
cap, under  which  the  hair  loosely  flows;  in  the  ear  in  the 
form  of  an  ear-ring  is  a tiny  United  States  shield;  around 
the  border  “E.  Pluribus  Unum,  1882,”  with  thirteen  stars; 
on  the  reverse  in  the  field  is  a fine  representation  of  an 
eagle  in  an  aggressive  attitude,  standing  to  right,  holding 
in  its  talons  an  olive  leaf  and  three  arrows;  around  the  bor- 
der “United  States  of  America.”  This  is  one  of  the  hand- 
somest of  the  United  States  pattern  dollars,  the  beauty  of 
which  makes  one  wonder  why  it  was  not  adopted  for  reg- 
ular circulation.  Not  over  four  of  these  known.  This  is 
the  first  time  in  many  years  that  it  has  been  offered  for  sale 
in  silver.  So  far  as  can  be  learned  the  last  time  being  in 
the  Doughty  sale  in  the  early  ’90s.  Slight  scratch  on  obv.

1878.  $5.00.  ( 'op|)er  proof.  To  tin*  l(Tt  a h(^ad  of  Liberty 
of  original  deHi^^ii.  witli  two  bands  around  the  hair,  on  one 
of  wliicli  is  inscribed  the  word  ‘‘Liberty”,  around  tlie  bor- 
der is  the  motto  ”K.  Fluribus  llnurn,  1878.’’  R(*verse:  An 
ea^le  with  outstretched  win^<s  lioldin^  olive  branch  and  ar- 
rows in  talons,  head  facing  to  left.  Around  the  border 
” United  States  of  America  Five  Dollars.”  This  piece  is  of 
unusual  size  and  of  pe(;uliar  design,  and  none' of  its  feat- 
ures were  adopted  on  an  United  States  coin.' 

1877.  Half  Dollar.  Uop{)er  proof.  Small  Liberty  head  to 
left,  in  the  center  of  the  held,  a head  a good  deal  similar  to 
the  regular  Morgan  adopted  design  of  1878;  immediately 
around  the  head  a circle  of  dots;  between  this  circle  and 
the  border  the  inscri{)tion  ‘‘F.  Pluribus  Unum,  1877,”  with 
thirteen  stars.  On  the  reverse,  an  odd  looking  eagle  fac- 
ing front  with  head  turned  to  right,  with  fan-like  wings, 
its  attitude  suggesting  “Phoenix  rising  from  the  tlames.” 
It  is  excessi\  ely  rare  as  are  all  of  the  {)atterns  of  this  year. 
1882.  Nickel  Five  Cents.  Proof.  Design  same  as  adopted 
design  of  1883,  or  “Nickel  without  Cents.”  <A"ery  rare. 
1882.  Five  Cents.  Copper  proof.  Same  as  foregoing,  with 
the  difference  in  the  metal.  Also  a great  rarity. 

1882.  Five  Cents  Nickel.  This  design,  obv.  and  rev.,  is 
very  similar  to  adopted  design  of  1883,  but  over  the  head 
of  “Liberty”  instead  of  the  usual  stars  is  the  motto  “In 
God  We  Trust”  around  the  border.  Proof.  ••  Very  rare. 

1883.  Nickel  five  cents.  Head  of  Libertv  fo  left,  surround- 
ed  by  inscription  “United  States  of  America,  1883.”  On 
the  reverse,  enclosed  by  a wreath  is  an  inscrii>tion  “75  N., 
25  C.”  At  the  top  the  word  “Pure”,  and  at- the  bottom 
“Nickel.”  Proof.  One  of  the  rarest  of  the  five  cent  piec- 
es. 


1883.  Five  Cents.  Obverse  and  reverse  simi^iar  to  the  fore-

661  1884.  Five  Cents  Nickel  proof.  Octagonal  hole  in  center; 
around  the  border  “United  States  of  America.”  Around 
the  hole  a circle  of  thirteen  stars;  on  the  reverse  to  the
